SPLC: Teaching Tolerance"The Association for Racial Concord is a non-profit,
nondenominational organization devoted to the promotion
of racial unity and harmony. The foundation of ARC is the
idea that racial unity and harmony can only be achieved
through education of the children. Racial inequality exists
only because some people teach their children to see a difference.
At ARC, we believe there is no difference and we take every
opportunity to teach our beliefs to children everywhere."

A true story taken from a South African newspaper.
"Go British Airways"
As we know, we see discrimination in some form or another almost everyday
and often at times, it leaves a sour taste in our mouths. The following story
shows us the side of diversity that we are all working for.It is a pleasant twist to
see that there are companies and individuals who face discrimination head on,
if only one small step at a time - but still enforce the right for every human
being regardless of race, colour, creed or religion to have equality in life.
A middle-aged, well-off white South African lady found herself sitting next
to a black man on the flight. She called the cabin crew attendant over to
complain about her seating.
"What seems to be the problem Madam?" asked the attendant.
"Can't you see?" she said " You've sat me next to a kaffir. I can't
possibly sit next to this disgusting human. Find me another seat!"
"Please calm down Madam." the stewardess replied."The flight is very
full today, but I'll tell you what I'll do. I'll go and check to see if we have
any seats available in Club or First Class."
The woman cocks a snooty look at the outraged black man beside her (not to
mention many of the surrounding passengers). A few minutes later the
stewardess returns with the good news, which she delivers to the lady,
who cannot help but look at the people around her with a smug and self-satisfied grin.
"Madam, unfortunately, as I suspected, Economy is full. I've spoken to the
cabin services director, and Club is also full. However, we do have one
very nice seat in First Class."
Before the lady has a chance to answer, the stewardess continues:
"It is most extraordinary to make this kind of upgrade, however, and I
have had to get special permission from the Captain. But, given the
circumstances, the Captain felt that it was outrageous that someone be
forced to sit next to such an obnoxious and uneducated person therefore
he has given his full approval for such a seat change to occur."
With which, the stewardess turned to the black man sitting next to the
woman, and said: "So if you'd like to get your things, Sir, I have your
new seat ready for you ... " At which point, apparently the surrounding
passengers stood and gave a standing ovation, while the black guy walks
proudly up to the front of the plane .
People will forget what you said ....
People will forget what you did ....
but People will never forget how you made them feel!!!
